RDF
Basics
• Make
asserQons
about
resources
• Resources
are
idenQfied
by
URIs
• AsserQons
are
made
in
the
form
of
triples
• Subject,
predicate,
object
• Only
binary
relaQons
expressable
• But,
n‐ary
relaQons
can
be
broken
down
into
several
binary
relaQons
• Many
syntaxes
– Graph
syntax,
XML,
N‐Tripel
• Standardized
query
language:
SPARQL

„Qny“
A
world
in
which
only
ants
exist
and
where
ants
are
Qny
things
with
6
legs
is
a
model
for
this
graph.
However,
if
ants
in
this
world
happen
to
have
8
legs,
then
the
world
is
not
saQsfying
the
graph.
